While I was the one claiming that you couldn't take out the optics
in a tank without taking out a humans optics (IE, stay INSIDE), I
will definately not argue that for communications.  If you need an
override (or quick repair) you Johnny, there and on the spot.  Not
someone who needs to make an ECM roll every time he needs to 
countermand an decision.
